Cricket’s Rare 299 Club: When Batsmen Fall Just Short of a Triple Century

By Cricketnmore Editorial February 25, 2026 • 09:06 AM View: 348

Recently, Bengal batsman Sudip Gharami missed a historic Ranji Trophy triple century as he was dismissed for 299 in the quarterfinal clash against Andhra Pradesh, but his innings powered Bengal towards a semifinal berth.

The Bengal Cricket Academy Ground in Kalyani witnessed both cricketing tragedy and brilliance during Sudip Gharami’s 930-minute vigil. He faced 596 deliveries, striking 31 fours and six sixes, before Sheikh Rasheed’s delivery crashed into his stumps.
